The tulip came and conquered the catwalks a couple of seasons ago and, unlike it's contemporaries the cocoon and the cape, the tulip has endured the test of time and continues to make regular appearances on the catwalks. For Autumn/Winter '08, the tulip shape was seen in collections by Balenciaga, Stella McCartney and Giambattista Valli, to name just a few. The emphasis of the season being on shape and structure; in stark contrast to the ethereal romanticism we witnessed in the Spring/Summer collections.
To incorporate the tulip shape into your weekend wardrobe, a casual skirt such as this one from American Apparel, is the perfect item to work for both your day and evening looks. For day, dressed down with a loose-fitting t-shirt, tucked in and cinched with a wide waisted belt, this skirt can look casually nonchalant. For evening, up the stakes by coupling it with a skimpy vest or body and switching the flats for some killer statment heels. A cummerband in a contrasting colour could further enhance your fashion credentials - Jil Sander's collection was a blur of acid brights. Or, to be ahead of the trends, do a Madonna and pull on some black lace fingerless gloves. Lace is a key theme for the coming season.
